History
Tametomo Oda rose up in rebellion against daimyo Nobuhide Oda of the Owari Province Oda clan in 1545 at the start of the Sengoku Jidai, accompanied by a brotherhood of 315 Ashigaru units, all from the same clan as him. Tametomo sought to take control of the Oda and Owari Province during a time of conflict with the Saito and the Tokugawa/Imagawa clans to the north and south, respectively. Tametomo's army took over the coastal village of Nagoya and took up a defensive position on a hilltop near the village.

In spring 1545, the Oda clan sent 720 troops under Muneyori Takayama to put down the uprising, and they laid siege to the hill. The rebel army was attacked from two directions by the Nobuhide Oda faction and was routed due to their low morale and inferior numbers, and Tametomo barely escaped. 238 of his men died in the battle of Nagoya, and the last 60 of his men died with him in northern Owari.
